Get Organized with Peachy Deegan and Lowe's! Shoe of the week this week is a place to put them all in!


We would love to go on week after week saying: Shoes!  Shoes!  More shoes!  You can never have enough! 


And that could be true, but we would not be doing you a favor unless we ALSO had a fabulous idea of WHERE TO PUT THEM ALL IN OUR LITTLE MANHATTAN SPACES....


This ClosetMaid 25 shoe organizer (Item #: 112756  Model: 850600) is the perfect solution!  Not only can you build it with such little effort - it only took Peachy about 15 minutes and believe me she is no handyman- but you can also be so excited that you can stack them!  We are thinking maybe you can put 3 on top of each other so you can have 75 pairs?  Then maybe 3 more next to that?  (Ok, now we are kidding.)  It retails for about $50, and your shoes deserve a lovely home like this!  You need a screwdriver, a hammer, and the ability to read directions.  It is a cinch!

Other great ideas on how to spruce up smaller spaces from Lowe's!
Clear out the clutter and gain some living space- don't wait until your New Year's Resolution!:


Closet
Although the mountain of clothes in your closet appears more daunting than climbing Mount Everest, you’d be surprised at how well you can organize with simple solutions. A deep plastic container (Planet Friendly Plastics 18 Gallon Recycled Tote, Item #286359) is perfect for housing seasonal shoes while an enclosed crate (Lidded Crate, Item #62653) does wonders for storing sweaters in the offseason. Double up on rods in your closet (8’ Closet Pole, #67480) -- two or three short rods installed one above the other will maximize hanging space. In addition, reserve another area for storage of longer items such as coats and dresses.

Laundry
Instead of leaving dirty clothes on the floor, keep them in a basket (Medium Laundry Basket, Item #283139). Consider installing plastic-coated wire shelving as it makes an ideal place for drying clothes flat.

Kitchen
Keep your garbage hidden inside of a kitchen cabinet (Rev-A-Shelf 30 Quart White Pull-Out Trash Can, Item #75477). Tackle pantry clutter by storing items such as old grocery bags in a reusable sack.
